DIY Designer Bug Traps
My original goal was to create a bug catcher to get the flies and gnats from in and around our back porch. This is a simple design where the kind of bug you collect depends on what you put in the trap. While this was the original plan, my artistic daughter decided it needed to be upgraded to make it beautifully fit our yard.
My Traumatizing Bug Story
This HAS to come with a story! I had a very dramatic experience growing up that my husband likes to tease me about occasionally…well, you’ll understand in a minute. I was living in Zimbabwe, Africa, my sleeping very peacefully in my bed when a horrible thing happened.
I woke up first, as I often did as a kid, and saw that the sun was just rising. I heard the birds singing, and then something else; a loud scratching sound, along with the feeling of something crawling in my ear!
